As the seas and oceans cover more than 70% of Earth’s surface, AMVs are proving to be a transformative solution for exploration, conservation, and commercial use.
The infographic showcases the current and projected growth of the AMV market, with revenues rising from $1,994.26 million in 2021 to an anticipated $4,147.97 million by 2026, reflecting a robust compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.9%. North America and the Middle East lead the adoption of these innovative technologies.
AMVs are used across numerous sectors, including:
- Oceanographic research
- Search and rescue operations
- Offshore industry support
- Military and defence applications
- Underwater inspections and maintenance
Key technical challenges such as path planning, power and energy management, and ensuring reliable communication systems highlight the need for durable, high-performance components.
Harwin emphasises the importance of choosing the right connector for AMV systems and offers specialised connectors for AMV environments.
The infographic also features a case study showcasing Harwin’s collaboration with VectorNav Technologies. After rigorous evaluations, VectorNav selected Harwin’s Datamate connectors for their high-performance inertial navigation systems, reaffirming their suitability for challenging environments on land, sea, and air.
